NEW THREAD WITH CONCEPT IMAGES!: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=169291.0NOTE: Before you vote, realize that I don't suggest the poll is a commitment. If you say Yes, up to $25, for example, that just means "I'd probably buy it at that price, if it meets my expectations." Please feel free to post advice/concerns and questions.
Hello,
I am currently considering the manufacture of a product and want to get the community's take on it. The product would be a small, metal rectangle (credit card sized) designed to withstand temperatures above 1800 degrees Fahrenheit (the upper range of house-fires) with a label, address and private key engraved on it.
The private key could be covered by a non-fire-proof removable holographic sticker or left exposed depending on what potential customers would prefer. If the private key is exposed it's possible that I would add other security features which I will consider.
Another possibility is multiple wallets on the same wallet card.
It would be clean and simple but stylish with the Bitcoin logo (and perhaps mine) on it and rounded corners. I am considering custom labeling to add the customer's name, but that would require pre-ordering.
This is in the very early stages of consideration, what do you think?
EDIT: Think Bitbills Bank Cards only fireproof.
EDIT: The "get involved" option refers to a few options:
1. You'd like to help with ideas and see how this turns out.
-
2. You'd like me to let you know how this works out.
-
3. If you like the design, you'd potentially be willing to pre-order more than 5 at a discount to resell.
